tron@3971: ======
tron@3971: Set the YAPF (Yet Another Path Finder) type in the "Configure Pathes/Vehicles/YAPF for ships":
tron@3971:  - 0 - No YAPF (NPF or old PF)
tron@3971:  - 1 - YAPF type 1 (Node = Tile/Trackdir, 90 deg. turns allowed)
tron@3971:  - 2 - YAPF type 2 (Node = Tile/ExitDir , 90 deg. turns allowed)
tron@3971:  - 3 - YAPF type 3 (Node = Tile/Trackdir, no 90 deg.)
tron@3971:  - 4 - YAPF type 4 (Node = Tile/ExitDir , no 90 deg.)
tron@3971: 
tron@3971: 
tron@3971: Set the "npf_max_search_nodes" value in your openttd.cfg to tune the pathfinder behavior.
tron@3971: This value tells, how many nodes (Tile/Trackdir or Tile/ExitDir) combinations the pathfinder
tron@3971: should visit before it ends. The lower number would mean quicker, but less accurate results.
tron@3971: The "npf_max_search_nodes" value is shared between NPF and YAPF and has the same meaning.
tron@3971: 
tron@3971: The pathfinder without such limit would be unusable on large maps, where number of visited
tron@3971: nodes can exceed 10 milions. NPF on my machine (dual code AMD 4400+) with 1 milion of nodes
tron@3971: visited took 2 minutes to finish, but with this limit set to 10000 it takes 20 miliseconds.
tron@3971: The new YAPF had similar results (18 seconds vs. 4 miliseconds).

tron@3971: Road Vehicles:
tron@3971: ==============
tron@3971: Set the YAPF (Yet Another Path Finder) type in the "Configure Pathes/Vehicles/YAPF for road vehs":
tron@3971:  - 0 - No YAPF (NPF or old PF)
tron@3971:  - 1 - YAPF type 1 (Node = Tile/Trackdir, 90 deg. turns allowed)
tron@3971:  - 2 - YAPF type 2 (Node = Tile/ExitDir , 90 deg. turns allowed)

tron@3971: Trains:
tron@3971: =======
tron@3971: Same types as for ships:
tron@3971:  - 0 - No YAPF (NPF or old PF)
tron@3971:  - 1 - YAPF type 1 (Node = Tile/Trackdir, 90 deg. turns allowed)
tron@3971:  - 2 - YAPF type 2 (Node = Tile/ExitDir , 90 deg. turns allowed)
tron@3971:  - 3 - YAPF type 3 (Node = Tile/Trackdir, no 90 deg.)
tron@3971:  - 4 - YAPF type 4 (Node = Tile/ExitDir , no 90 deg.)
